A large number of interested job-seekers are expected to turn up on Saturday to become part of the government organisation as witnessed

Dewa is currently participating in Career Fair 2012, which is taking place at Dubai International Convention Centre until March 7 to acquire different national capabilities and talents and provide job opportunities and training.

During the Fair, Dewa has been displaying its efforts on recruitment, emiratisation and its ambitious plans to emiratise different jobs through its continuous efforts to recruit UAE National graduates and technicians, especially in different engineering fields.

As part of its ongoing efforts, Dewa is upgrading its 132kV power transmission grid with the opening of a 132/11kV main substation with
a 150 MVA (Megavolt Per Ampere) capacity at the Factories Area in Industrial Area 4 in February 2012.

The substation cost Dh120 million and the lay of 132kv ground cables was valued at Dh130m, securing the increasing demand for electricity.
